ANA NZINGA OF NDONGO.

-
                                                In 1624,Ana Nzinga inherited rule of Ndongo,a state to the east of Luanda in modern day Angola,populated primarily by Mbundu peoples.At that moment,the kingdom was under attack from both portuguese as well as neighnoring African aggressors.Nzinga realized thar,to remain viable,Ndongo had to reposition it self as an intermediary rather than a supply zone in the slave trade .To achieve this,she allied Ndongo with portugal,simutaneously acquiring a partner in its fight against its African enemies and ending portuguese slave raiding in the kingdom.Ana Nzinga's baptism,with the portuguese colonial governor serving as godfather,sealed this relationship.By 1626,however,Portugal had betrayed Ndongo,and Nzinga was forced to flee with her people further west,where they found a new state at Matamba,well beyond the reach of the portuguese.To bolster Matamba's martial power,Nzinga offered sanctuary to runaway slaves and portuguese trained African soldiers and adopted a form of military organization known as Kilombo,in which youths renounced family ties and were raised communally in militias.She also formented rebellion within Ndongo itself,which was now governed indirectly by the Portuguese through a puppel ruler.Nzinga found an ally in the Netherlands,which seized Luanda for its own merchantile purposes in 1641.Their combined forces were insufficient to drive the Portuguese out of Angola,howeverand after Luanda was reclaimed by the Portuguese,Nzinga was again forced to retreat to Matamba.From this point on,Nzinga focused on developing Matamba as a trading power by capitalizing on its position as the gate way to the central African interior.By the time of her death in 1661,Matamba was a formidable commercial state that dealt with the portuguese colony on an equal footing.Nzinga,who reconverted to before her death at the age of eighty one {81},became a sensation in Europe following the 1769 publication of Jean Louis Castilhon's colorful biography Zingha,Reine d'Angola,in Paris.
